INDIANAPOLIS A new version of a traffic enforcement text scam is making the rounds.Several people contacted WRTV Investigates about a text message claiming to be from the Marion County Superior Courts Traffic Division.The text from Judge Michael Rodriguez references violations for failure to pay an electronic toll, as well as parking and speeding violations.The message includes a QR code to make a full payment on outstanding tolls, civil penalties and court costs.However, by scanning the QR code, scammers may be able to install malware onto your device and steal your personal information.Luke Britt, Public Information Officer and General Counsel of the Marion Superior Court, said there is no Judge Michael Rodriguez in Marion County.The clerks office does not text payment requirements or court dates, says Marion County Clerk Kate Sweeney Bell. Scammers are becoming more sophisticated and though the texts may appear to be legitimate, they are in fact just junk. Citizens are encouraged to ignore the message and then mark it as spam on their phones if they are able.If anyone has a question about whether a communication from our office is legitimate, I encourage them to call us at 317-327-4740 or visit our website at Indy.gov/Clerk, says Sweeney Bell.Indiana Attorney General Todd Rokita also offered the following tips: Do Notclick on any links in unsolicited email or text messages.   Do Notprovide personal information, such as your drivers license number or Social Security number.
